"Socialism shaped the principal economic and social policies of the Indian government but mostly followed Dirigisme after independence until the early 1990s, when India moved towards a more market-based economy." - Socialism in India Wiki page

So then you're not socialist...? I guess a more accurate statement is a mixed economy since you have elements from both socialism and capitalism

> Also didn’t America banned a lot of unions from being formed?

Yep, they lie that the union would make their dalaries go down and people somehow fall for it even tho their primary purpose is literally to make them go up. They also double the work on those who threaten to start unions and then fire them for not being able to do their job.

Well. It’s called Indian Socialism. Which states that every person should have equal opportunity to grow. I misspelled, not corporate but co-operative society. Like Amul, Mother Dairy. Which keeps companies like Nestle at bay and prevent them from commercialising essential sectors. Modern Policies like UPI, and ONDC exist to prevent monopolisation of internet in modern society. Like preventing Amazon and apple pay from fully overtaking their sector. So yes it’s a mix, but we still like to call ourselves socialist.
